Theres no continental breakfast., no swimm8ng pool for hot days. negative ... but there are places to eat breakfast. Dine and dash you need to get in your car, but TJs Roadhouse is 100 ft away. Other small places to eat across the street and downtown. Mama's kitchen downtown for quick breakfast like muffins, pastries Very pet friendly. Extra charge of course. Small outdoor area with table & chairs. Its a very old motel but comfortable. Have stayed twice.

Super helpful staff. Clean room and premises. Everything worked as it should have. This is a very reasonable older single story motel that is well kept up and managed very well without those ------- resort fees for nothing. Very reasonably priced in todays market. A lot like the 40's, through 60's motels found along Route 66 across the Southwest and Route 99 in the San Joaquin Valley. For the traveler who wants a good nights sleep in a clean room at a great price without all the fancy design, furniture, and crap - THIS PLACE IS GREAT!

This motel is very nice. Its simple and works well. You have restaurants close by across the street along with a grocery store ...starbucks close and gas station. All within walking distance. Very convenient. I stayed for 2 nights. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. I would plan to stay there again. The downside is that the freeway noise is loud with the big trucks in the middle of the night. But theres nothing anyone can do about that. Its on the interstate 80 corridor. Nice little town. Thank you staff. It was nice for me MB

The room was clean. Furniture sparse, but in good condition. Bed was comfortable and the bedding clean. Heating and AC unit was adequate for the size of the room. Bathroom was worn, but clean, and included a new shower unit with hot water on demand. All and all a good road stop inn for a couple of nights stay.

Pros: Easy to get to, clean, food is within walking distance, affordable, had a microwave, fridge and dmall coffee pot Cons: Fire alarm wasnt mounted, hair dryer didn't work and one outlet had multiple plugs plug into an outlet extender that was a bit questionable

I wasn’t thrilled to find that the bathroom window wasn’t shut all the way when we arrived - it seemed to have been propped open by a stretch of toilet paper, strategically placed to where the window wouldn’t lock. If I weren’t neurotic about securing my hotel rooms, I wouldn’t have even noticed. Room was clean enough, although dated. The AC worked well. The bed was super uncomfortable (old spring mattress) and I ended up taking the comforter off entirely because it was scratchy and unpleasant.

Everything was great besides the bed. Woke up every 45 minutes or so because it wasnt the most comfortable. But the staff was super friendly and even stayed late for us. Its not a bad spot fir just 1 night.

In a really convinient area surrounded by Starbucks, grocery store, etc. Air conditioning worked, easy parking, nearby road is a little loud, but couldn't hear other guests. Other than that, it was OK. I understand that it's a fairly inexpensive motel on the side of the freeway, but that doesn't exactly excuse it from adequate houskeeping and cleanliness, which could have been improved.

Management was intrusive and knocked on our door loudly asking to come in and look for a lost key from the previous tenant. That should have been handled before we were given the room. After a long drive, this was the last thing we wanted to deal with. I let it slide because I was exhausted, but the experience was unacceptable. I wouldn’t recommend staying here — look elsewhere
